【解析】
试题分析:本文介绍the Queen每年都要举行几次下午茶的聚会,并叙述了聚会的内容。
【1】skillfully 副词修饰动词,故填skilfully。
【2】an 表示“维持一个完整的晚会”。entire以元音音素开头,故填an。
【3】belief 句意:主人似乎都有一个信念。可知此处用名词形式,故填belief。
【4】eating 介词without后面用动名词,故填eating。
【5】prepared 表示“一个专门准备的晚宴”。此处是过去分词作前置定语,故填prepared。
【6】were carried a turkey, some meat, an apple and bananas是句子主语,和后面的动词之间是被动关系,根据句意用一般过去时态的被动语态,故填were carried。
【7】on 表示“继续一个温暖的谈话”。carry on“继续,进行”,故填on。
【8】that 固定结构:so...that...“如此……以致于……”,引导结果状语从句,故填that。
【9】to finish 句意:她简直就没有完成一顿饭的时间。用动词不定式作后置定语,故填to finish。
【10】it 句意:再次把它放下。用it代替前面的her fork,故填it。
【知识拓展】
1.so + 形容词/副词 + that + 从句,如:This story is so interesting that I want to read it again.(这个故事如此有趣以至我想再读一次.)
2.so+形容词/副词+(a/an)+(单数)复数可数名词/+that+从句,如果句中的名词是单数可数名词,其前就要用
a或an,如果是复数可数名词或者,前面就不用,如: Those are so beautiful flowers that wants to pick them.(那些花是如此漂亮以至那个女孩想要摘下它们.)
3.such+a/an+形容词+单数可数名词+that+从句,如:It is such an interesting story that I want to read it again.(这是一个如此有趣的故事以至我想再读一次.)
温馨提示:so+表示数量的词many/much/few/little(少)+名词,此时不能用such.
